`FCC Interference Warning
`
`The FCC requires that manuals pertaining to Class A computing devices must contain a warning about possible interference with
`local residential radio and TV reception. This warning reads as follows:
`This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the
`instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communication. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
`limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable
`protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area
`is likely to cause interference. In this case users are required, at their own expense, to correct the interference.

`® MOTOROLA
`
`CENTRACOM Gold Series
`Classic CRT
`USER'S GUIDE
`
`1. DESCRIPTION
`
`1.1 GENERAL
`
`The CENTRACOM Gold Series CRT console consists of a
`computer, a color CRT monitor, and a mouse. You can control
`and operate a console communication system which pre(cid:173)
`viously was configured with panels of buttons and LEDs. You
`do not need to manually start up or load disk information into
`the computer prior to operation from a cold start.
`
`1.2 CEB (CENTRAL ELECTRONICS BANK)
`INTERFACE
`
`1.5 AUDIO
`
`Audio from the "selected" channel is routed to the select audio
`speaker. Combined audio from all "unselected" channels is
`routed to the unselect audio speaker. Select and unselect
`speakers are standard and more speakers are available. Dual
`headset interfaces are optional.
`
`You can receive audio at all times after initial set-up. Even
`while using a set-up or auxiliary control screen, you can hear
`select and unselect audio and use the foot switch to talk on the
`select channel.
`
`1.6 PARALLEL STATUS FEATURE
`
`The CRT console interfaces with 68020 microprocessor(cid:173)
`based console systems. Existing CEB and operator interface
`module hardware and firmware require only minor modifica(cid:173)
`tion to support basic CRT operation. CRT operator positions
`can be intermixed with other trunked buttons and LEDs oper(cid:173)
`ator positions on the same CEB system.
`
`Any action resulting in a change of status of any indicator au(cid:173)
`tomatically is displayed at all similar positions. This feature
`minimizes errors and achieves more efficient console opera(cid:173)
`tion.
`
`1.7 MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS
`
`1.3 AMBASSADOR ELECTRONICS BANK (AEB)
`
`1.7.1 Console Furniture
`
`The AEB is a large capacity TDM audio processing switch
`which connects to CEBs and SmartZone TM System Channel
`Banks. The AEB is the audio switch used in SmartZone sys(cid:173)
`tems to route the repeater and dispatch audio throughout the
`system. SmartZone audio routing is controlled by the Zone
`Controller. Multiple SmartZone systems can be connected to
`form a SmartZone OmniLink TM system.
`
`Some features in a console will only function within the zone
`in which the dispatch console is located. These features in(cid:173)
`clude Call Status, Set Clock, Console Disable, Intercom and
`All Call.
`
`1.4 CRT COLOR MONITOR
`
`The CRT console uses a 14-inch, high-resolution color moni(cid:173)
`tor. The CRT console can be operated with a 2-button mechan(cid:173)
`ical mouse, a 3-button mechanical mouse, a trackball, or a
`keyboard. A keyboard is normally used as a back-up means of
`operation and to enter text information.
`
`The CRT monitor rack mounts in two EIA 10.5 x 19 inch panel
`openings in a free-standing console bay.
`
`Select and unselect speakers are standard and provision is
`made for additional panel mounted speakers. A VU meter is
`standard. The keyboard and/or mouse are connected at the
`front panel and can be easily removed or replaced. Any other
`support electronics are rack mountable behind the speakers or
`in the base of the furniture bay.
`
`1.7.2 Desktop CRT Console
`
`A desktop version of the CRT console is available for applica(cid:173)
`tions without console furniture. The monitor sits on top of the
`console electronics enclosure. The computer can be stacked
`on the console electronics enclosure.
`
`The console electronics enclosure contains two speakers, a
`VU meter, power supply, CEB interface board, and any other
`operator board (for example, remote operator's board). You
`can attach additional speakers to the electronics enclosure.

`
`1.8 OPERATOR POSITION CAPABILITY
`
`2.2 MOUSE OR TRACKBALL OPERATION
`
`A standard CRT operator position has the capability of con(cid:173)
`trolling the following:
`
`• A total of 60 conventional channels, trunked talk groups,
`Simplex Phone Patches, and Direct Phone Interconnects.
`
`• 150 channel options and auxiliary controls (each). (Com(cid:173)
`parator Display counts as 16 auxiliary controls).
`
`• 149 pre-programmed pages (upgradable to 250).
`
`If an entire system fits within these parameters, all operator
`positions can have the capability of controlling all of these
`functions.
`
`2. OPERATING CONTROLS AND
`DESCRIPTIONS
`
`2.1 SCREEN STRUCTURE
`
`The CRT console uses two primary screens: the Main Screen
`and the Setup Screen (see Figure 1). The Main Screen con(cid:173)
`tains a Radio Control Screen used for radio dispatch func(cid:173)
`tions. Use the Setup Screen to arrange the appearance of chan(cid:173)
`nels and auxiliary controls in the Radio Control and Auxiliary
`Control Screens.
`
`When using a mouse or trackball to operate the CRT console,
`initiate actions by positioning the cursor on the screen and
`pressing one of the three mouse buttons: Choose, Instant
`Transmit, or General Transmit (see Figure 2). Pressing the
`Choose button ( or Choosing) is similar to a button press on a
`buttons and LEDs console; i.e., the Choose button selects
`channels and activates functions. The General Transmit
`mouse button operates similarly to the conventional Transmit
`bar, transmitting over the selected channel(s) when pressed.
`A footswitch can also be used. The General Transmit mouse
`button does not function when the CRT is running under Win(cid:173)
`dows, and it is not available if a 2-button mouse is used. The
`CRT running under Windows requires a footswitch, key(cid:173)
`board, or the General Transmit Window to perform a General
`Transmit. The Instant Transmit button allows the dispatcher
`to transmit over the channel on which the mouse cursor is lo(cid:173)
`cated.
`
`2.3 TOUCH TRANSMIT OPERATION
`
`With Touch Transmit features added to your setup, it is possi(cid:173)
`ble to perform general transmit and instant transmit opera(cid:173)
`tions without a mouse, a trackball or a footswitch.
`
`This can be done by using on-screen General Transmit Win(cid:173)
`dow and Instant Transmit options to perform general transmit
`and instant transmit operations.

`
`2.5.1 Transmit
`
`CRT USER'S
`GUIDE
`
`Press and hold the General Transmit mouse button or use the
`General Transmit Window to transmit on all selected chan(cid:173)
`nels. The right treadle on the optional foots witch also provides
`the "Push-To-Talk" operation.
`
`NOTE
`For more information on Transmit see Sec(cid:173)
`tion 3.3.
`
`2.6 VUMETER
`
`The VU meter is a bar graph which responds to the dispatch(cid:173)
`er's voice during transmit and intercom operation. At other
`times, the meter responds to the audio on the selected channel.
`See Section 5.3 for instructions on using the VU meter.
`
`2.7 SUPERVISORY PRIORITY
`
`One operator position has supervisory priority. The supervi(cid:173)
`sor gains immediate access to any channel by using the instant
`Transmit switch, regardless of any other console activity on
`that channel. The supervisor's audio is heard through the SE(cid:173)
`LECT or UNSELECT speaker at the interrupted operator's
`console. In installations where the consoles are close together,
`the supervisor's audio can be muted to prevent feedback. A
`second supervisor can have control of the channels on one
`console. The second level supervisor is subject to the control
`of the primary supervisor (see Table 1).
`
`2.8 TRANSMIT QUEUE WAITING FEATURE
`
`The transmit queue feature allows two operators to "stand in
`line" to use a busy channel by holding down the transmit but(cid:173)
`ton or footswitch. When the channel is free, the first dispatch(cid:173)
`er in the queue has access to the channel.

`Audio from the "selected" channel routes to the SELECT au(cid:173)

`routes to the UNSELECT audio speaker. In consoles with
`many radio channels, additional UNSELECT speakers can
`handle smaller groups of unselected audio channels. Addi(cid:173)
